Pet care experience

The best movie pets are Zero

Animals have been in my family for as long as I could remember! When it was my time to take care of them, I loved them till my heart broke. I took care of my first ever pet fish, Rudolph, in elementary school till his last moments of life, the fish life can be simple but the work put into the fishes care can help create a fun and relaxing environment. After Rudolph, I have the pleasure of having the family dog Angel. A lovely pit bull mix, who made being fun and rambunctious seem to be the best characteristics in life. Later when I started high school, I had my first cat Lucy, who lived for a very long time until my junior year in college. I understood that cats are very laid-back, however I also understood that each cat has a unique personality, and like humans, take some time to see their personality. Very recently I take care of 2 cats with my mom named Rambo and Misty, we have had these kittens turned cats for a year and they still show me more and more how each cat is unique. I take care of these cats by providing a space of care, most people may think that cats are easy animals because they take care of themselves, but I realize that cats need to be taken care of as well in ways of having someone to play with, to having someone to cuddle with to having someone clean their litter box every day. My motto with animals is that, they should be treated with the same respect of humans. They should receive similar care and loving that we give to humans because of how much they do for us. And with my experience I have seen plenty of animals and I am always open to learning more about them.

Pets

Safety, trust & environment

As mentioned, with my 2 cats, I let them get to know me in ways that can establish a sense of trust within me. Sticking to the daily routine of my client can help that process stick to where we can possibly make new connections similar to best friends creating a handshake to show the world their unique relationship, I would strive to do the same with your pets. When pets are seeing someone new they are nervous like humans, and if I can make sure when they see me, they can relax and possibly have fun I have done my job as a sitter, or a walker!

House Sitting • Jul 07, 2026

Taylor was an exceptional dog sitter and house sitter when I went out of town for 5 days. She was so kind and attentive to my dog Zara, and asked very thoughtful questions during the meet and greet she arranged before my trip. She was even willing to go on a walk around the neighborhood with me and Zara to see our route, her interactions with other dogs, and favorite dog park nearby. When she found out a heat wave was coming, she even reached out for an updated walking route and schedule to protect her from hot pavement/sidewalks. She went above and beyond to wake up really early to walk Zara during the coolest time of the day when Zara’s favorite dog park was in the shade so she could still enjoy her zoomies. She was also a dream houseguest and clearly went out of her way to keep everything tidy in her room, restroom, kitchen, etc. She was so courteous, professional, punctual, and thoughtful. I’ll probably plan my next trip out of town around her availability lol.

Schedule

I have recently graduated from undergrad at McDaniel so as I am finding my footing in the world I currently strive to care for animals in my free time. With that I currently take care of my 2 cats almost every other hour, to feed them or to provide them cuddles and pets and when they need food or clean water bowls, I ensure they are done with integrity. I hope with the chance of taking care of your pets, I will have a new weekly routine.

Cats
0 to 15 lbs

Taylor "Zero" can host up to 3 drop-ins per day
Let me know if your pets are more nervous and if that nervousness can present itself in more aggressive tones, I will be a bit nervous as well and it could be just a recipe for disaster or give me notes on how to best ease their nervousness. Let me know what snacks they could eat, if I am able, I want to bribe them (in the most important positive way) to like me and it all starts either with food or a toy.
